    Hello,

    I thought I would describe my problem with my wife's brand NEW SE K700i.

    We received her new phone today and it was charged until it told me all was
    good.

    I turned on and the new phone setup wizard started and while reading what
    to do the phone rebooted, and then proceeded to reboot approx every 30-45
    seconds. I was not able to turn this off and I could proceed through some
    of the wizard but reboot resets everything.

    Has anyone experienced this problem with a new SE phone?

    The company I purchased from are sending me a replacement so I am not
    concerned re: warranties or anything. I am just interested in similar
    experiences and also possible fault identifiers.

    Thankyou

    A

    Fair enough everyone slagging down companies for bad service, but I
    will defend SE here as ive had a t610, t630 and a k700i so far this
    year from them and have had no problems, maybe you both were unlucky
    and had a faulty batch.

    Just got rid of a N6600 because I had 6 replacements in two months with 2
    versions of software, so Nokias don't test there software either.

    Yup, thats the first thing you see when starting up a new K700. Its only a
    matter of time before you get "Control", "Alt" and "Delete" keys included on
    the keypad

    Some great news.

    This problem is a known problem with OLDER SIMS being used in newer
    phones.

    I had the SIM replaced and the phone works exactly as it should.

    Whooohoooo.

    ****ing morons, of course companies test their products. big $$$$ and no
    testing!(I don't think so) out of the 1m phones produced in a particular
    model of course you will get some faulty, its the law of averages. Pathetic
    really

    The only issue we are having now is the length of battery charge.

    Do the new batteries have a "memory"?

    They will certainly need a few charge / discharge cycles before reaching
    their full capacity, though other factors like leaving bluetooth on (if
    availiable) and the backlight duration will affect life also.

    Handsets costs, on average, are also much less than they used to be.
    Tradeoff perhaps?

    He did not deserve an answer, all you have to do is count the product
    withdrawals (not from retail shops but from the operator net works OrangeUK
    have withdrawn MPx200 and the new SPV within weeks of there release to have
    major software upgrades.) and other software updates to see how much testing
    is done before release. If they were tested fully they would not need
    software upgrades. The major testing of phones is now done by the consumer.
    Just thank goodness all they are making is communication equipment and not
    aircraft or automobiles. ;-)
